Verse 1A
Shut the door turn the light off
E
I wanna be with you
I wanna feel your love
F#m
I wanna be beside you
D
I cannot hide this even though I try
-
A
Hard beats harder
Time escapes me
E
Trembling hands touch skin
F#m
It makes this harder
D
And the tears stream down my face
F#mEAD
If we could only have this life for one more day
F#mED
If we could only turn back time
ChorusA
You know I'll be
E
Your life, your voice your reason to be
My love, my heart
F#m
Is breathing for this
Moment in time
D
I'll find the words to say
Before you leave me today
-
A
Close the door
Throw the key
E
Don't wanna be reminded
Don't wanna be seen
F#m
Don't wanna be without you
My judgement is clouded
D
Like the night sky
A
Undecided
Voice is numb
E
Try to scream out my lungs
F#m
But it makes this harder
D
And the tears stream down my face
F#mEAD
If we could only have this life for one more day
F#mED
If we could only turn back time
ChorusA
You know I'll be
E
Your life, your voice your reason to be
My love, my heart
F#m
Is breathing for this
Moment in time
D
I'll find the words to say
Before you leave me today
-
F#mE
Flashes left in my mind
A
Going back to the time
D
Playing games in the street
F#m
Kicking balls with my feet
E
Dancing on with my toes
A
Standing close to the edge
DF#m
There's a pile of my clothes at the end of your bed
E
As I feel myself fall
D
Make a joke of it all
ChorusA
You know I'll be
E
Your life, your voice your reason to be
My love, my heart
F#m
Is breathing for this
Moment in time
D
I'll find the words to say
Before you leave me today
ChorusA
You know I'll be
E
Your life, your voice your reason to be
My love, my heart
F#m
Is breathing for this
Moment in time
D
I'll find the words to say
Before you leave me today
